OVERRIDE
INSIDE THE REVOLUTION REWIRING AMERICAN POWER

The clock struck 2 AM on Jan 21, 2025.

In Treasury’s basement, fluorescent lights hummed above four young coders. Their screens cast blue light across government-issue desks, illuminating energy drink cans and agency badges. As their algorithms crawled through decades of payment data, one number kept growing: $17 billion in redundant programs. And counting.

“We’re in,” Akash Bobba messaged the team. “All of it.”

Edward Coristine’s code had already mapped three subsystems. Luke Farritor’s algorithms were tracing payment flows across agencies. Ethan Shaotran’s analysis revealed patterns that career officials didn’t even know existed. By dawn, they would understand more about Treasury’s operations than people who had worked there for decades.

This wasn’t a hack. This wasn’t a breach. This was authorized disruption.

While career bureaucrats prepared orientation packets and welcome memos, DOGE’s team was already deep inside the payment systems. No committees. No approvals. No red tape. Just four coders with unprecedented access and algorithms ready to run.

“The beautiful thing about payment systems,” noted a transition official watching their screens, “is that they don’t lie. You can spin policy all day long, but money leaves a trail.”

That trail led to staggering discoveries. Programs marked as independent revealed coordinated funding streams. Grants labeled as humanitarian aid showed curious detours through complex networks. Black budgets once shrouded in secrecy began to unravel under algorithmic scrutiny.

By 6 AM, Treasury’s career officials began arriving for work. They found systems they thought impenetrable already mapped. Networks they believed hidden already exposed. Power structures built over decades revealed in hours.

Their traditional defenses—slow-walking decisions, leaking damaging stories, stonewalling requests—proved useless against an opponent moving faster than their systems could react. By the time they drafted their first memo objecting to this breach, three more systems had already been mapped.

“Pull this thread,” a senior official warned, watching patterns emerge across DOGE’s screens, “and the whole sweater unravels.”

He wasn’t wrong. But he misunderstood something crucial: That was exactly the point.

This wasn’t just another transition. This wasn’t just another reform effort. This was the start of something unprecedented: a revolution powered by preparation, presidential will, and technological precision.

The storm had arrived. And Treasury was just the beginning.

Today Is Holocaust Remembrance Day

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day, commemorating the victims of Nazi genocide, particularly Jews.

Adolf Hitler and his Nazis massacred an estimated 17 million-plus people during their relatively brief but extremely deadly reign of terror. These included Catholics and other Christians, Soviet civilians, Serbs, Poles, Roma, disabled individuals, and, most infamously, 6 million Jews from many nations. In fact, 80 years after the Holocaust, the worldwide Jewish population has yet to recover from its decimation.

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day because it is the anniversary of the Allied liberation of Auschwitz, the most infamous and deadly of the dozens of Nazi concentration camps. Holocaust survivor and nonagenarian Manfred Goldberg today remembered his experiences entering and being held in Auschwitz as a 13-year-old. “Work sets you free,” the Auschwitz gate sign said in German. “It became realistic that once you walked through that gate, you were under a sentence of death,” Goldberg recalled.

He was sent to Auschwitz with his mother and brother. “When we finally reached the camp, we each were inspected as to our potential of slave laboring,” Goldberg remembered. “He decided apparently that I was fit for slave labor and pointed me in the direction of those surviving. My little brother, age nine, did not so he lost his life, he was murdered.”

As Westerners increasingly seem in danger of forgetting the horrors of the Holocaust and even outright supporting Islamic jihadis who want to commit a second Holocaust, Goldberg is determined to educate younger generations.

“I’m only a drop in the ocean. But I’ve made up my mind that as long as God gives me the strength, physical and mental, to continue doing it, I have committed myself to keep on doing it,” the 94-year-old Holocaust survivor said.

Galina Bailin was a Ukrainian who survived the Holocaust and moved to Israel, where she suffered the horrible heartbreak of burying her daughter Zena, whom Hamas terrorists murdered on Oct. 7, 2023. “During the Shoah [Holocaust] when I was a little girl, I wasn’t afraid because my mother was protecting me,” Galina said. “But now, on Oct. 7, I was afraid, and I feel guilty I couldn’t protect my daughter the way my mother protected me. At my daughter’s funeral, I felt like my life was over, that I no longer had a reason to live. But my grandchildren and great-grandchildren, they say, ‘Grandma, we need you.’ They are the ones keeping me alive.”

The scars remain, not just for Holocaust survivors and those who lost family to the Nazi genocide but for millions of others. In 1939, the global Jewish population was 16.6 million, but by the end of 2020, it was 15.2 million, and in 2024, 15.8 million. Now there is once again a global wave of antisemitism from Islamic terrorists and Western wokies. The Hamas Oct. 7 massacre of Israelis was the worst day of slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust, and extreme violence continues not only against Israelis but against Jews around the world, from Amsterdam to New York.

We must fight the new Nazism of our times. “Never Again” is now.

Trump Warns ‘All Hell Will Break Out’ If Gaza Hostages Aren’t Released Before Inauguration

President-elect Donald Trump issued a stark warning to Hamas terrorists in Gaza, vowing that “all hell will break out” if the hostages held by them are not released before his inauguration on January 20. Trump made it clear that his administration would not tolerate the continued suffering of innocent Americans and other hostages, promising swift and decisive action once he is sworn in as the 47th president.

His remarks underscore the situation’s urgency and starkly contrast the Biden administration’s handling of the crisis, as Trump reiterated his commitment to ensuring the safety and security of American citizens abroad.
During an interview with conservative radio talk show host Hugh Hewitt, Trump was asked what exactly he meant when he said “all hell will break out” if Hamas doesn’t follow orders.

“Exactly what it says — if those hostages aren’t released by the time I get office, there will be hell to pay,” Trump reiterated. “I don’t think I have to get into it, but it won’t be the word ‘don’t.’” Trump was referring to the joke of a warning outgoing President Joe Biden made on October 10, 2023, in a speech vowing his support for Israel after Hamas initially attacked the Jewish state.

Trump cautioned that if Hamas terrorists don’t release the remaining hostages before he takes office, “it won’t be good for anyone.” The president-elect’s comments come after Steve Witkoff, Trump’s pick to serve as the special envoy to the Middle East, expressed optimism that a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas is making “a lot of progress.” He appeared sure that by the time Trump was inaugurated, there would be “good things” to announce on behalf of the new administration.

“It’s the president, his reputation, the things that he has said that are driving this negotiation, and so hopefully, it’ll all work out, and we’ll save some lives,” Witkoff said, echoing the same stern warning to Hamas saying, “This better get done by the inaugural.”

159 Democrats voted to value illegal aliens who commit crimes over you. Let that sink in.

“If I’m gonna be lost in space for that long, I need a talking robot. And maybe June Lockhart or Marta Kristen.”

Stranded Boeing Starliner astronauts face new delay in return to Earth from ISS.

Dec. 17 (UPI) — Two Boeing Starliner astronauts, stranded at the International Space Station in June after what was supposed to be a weeklong test flight, are facing a new delay in their return trip to Earth, NASA revealed Tuesday.

Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore had been scheduled to return on a SpaceX Dragon flight in February, after they were forced to abandon Starliner due to helium leaks and thruster issues. The pair will now return to Earth no earlier than late March, 10 months after they originally launched, as they wait for their replacements to arrive at the ISS.

“NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 now is targeting no earlier than late March 2025 to launch four crew members to the space station,” NASA wrote Tuesday in a post on X.

“The change gives NASA and SpaceX time to complete processing on a new Dragon spacecraft for the mission, set to arrive in early January.”

Trump picks Pam Bondi for US Attorney General after Gaetz withdraws

Nov 21 (Reuters) – U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday nominated former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to be U.S. Attorney General, moving swiftly to replace his former nominee Matt Gaetz after the embattled former congressman withdrew from consideration.
Gaetz, who faced opposition from Senate Republicans, was the subject of a House Ethics Committee probe into allegations of having sex with an underage 17-year-old girl and illicit drug use. He has denied wrongdoing.

Bondi served as the top law enforcement officer of the country’s third most populous state from 2011 to 2019 and on Trump’s Opioid and Drug Abuse Commission during his first administration.

Most recently, Bondi helped lead the legal arm of the America First Policy Institute, a right-leaning think tank whose personnel has worked closely with Trump’s campaign to help shape policy for his incoming administration.

Her resume contrasts with that of Gaetz, who has little of the traditional experience expected of an attorney general. Bondi would likely face less opposition from senators involved in the confirmation process compared with Gaetz.

Trump announced his pick of Bondi on social media, praising her for her prosecutorial experience and saying she was tough on crime as Florida’s first female attorney general.

Trump, who was elected on Nov. 5 despite being the subject of multiple criminal investigations from U.S. and state prosecutors, including a felony conviction in the state of New York, said Bondi would end the politicization of federal prosecutions.

“For too long, the partisan Department of Justice has been weaponized against me and other Republicans – Not anymore,” Trump said.
“Pam will refocus the DOJ to its intended purpose of fight Crime, and Making America Safe Again.”

Sedition, Insubordination, Conduct Unbecoming. In a time of war; Treason.
This sort of thing must be rooted out and the bureaucraps fired, those on active duty who took part relieved, and those who may not have been on active duty (retired), recalled and face courts martial. The military must be completely subordinate to the elected constitutional national command authority and follow their legal orders or what we’ll wind up with is a military hunta akin to the praetorian guard of the roman empire who decided who the next emperor would be after disposing of the last one.

Sorry, We Can Only View This Secret Pentagon Meeting as a Plot to Foment an Insurrection

John Frankenheimer directed a movie called Seven Days in May in the 1960s, starring Kirk Douglas as a military officer who uncovers a coup against the president of the United States by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who signed a deeply unpopular nuclear disarmament treaty. That’s a movie. In 2024, the Pentagon brass plotted to countermand President-elect Donald J. Trump’s orders. If we’re going by the Left’s rules here, this is an insurrection. It’s a military coup. What’s worse is that these anti-Trump meetings were held in secret and then got leaked to the media (via CNN):

Pentagon officials are holding informal discussions about how the Department of Defense would respond if Donald Trump issues orders to deploy active-duty troops domestically and fire large swaths of apolitical staffers, defense officials told CNN.

Trump has suggested he would be open to using active-duty forces for domestic law enforcement and mass deportations and has indicated he wants to stack the federal government with loyalists and “clean out corrupt actors” in the US national security establishment.

[…]

“We are all preparing and planning for the worst-case scenario, but the reality is that we don’t know how this is going to play out yet,” one defense official said.

Trump’s election has also raised questions inside the Pentagon about what would happen if the president issued an unlawful order, particularly if his political appointees inside the department don’t push back.

“Troops are compelled by law to disobey unlawful orders,” said another defense official. “But the question is what happens then – do we see resignations from senior military leaders? Or would they view that as abandoning their people?”

CNN’s Scott Jennings tore apart these unelected bureaucrats yesterday. We’re back to the same Deep State games, but this time, Trump, with no re-election ahead of him, can go hard and fast to rid the Pentagon and any agency of troublesome government workers who think they’re above the law and not accountable to the will of the people. The illegal orders narrative is also ridiculous, soaked in the anti-Trump hysterics that have engulfed the Left.

Secret meetings on thwarting a duly elected president are not a good look.

Study of 1.7 Million Children: Heart Damage Only Found in Covid-Vaxxed Kids

A major study involving 1.7 million children has found that heart damage only appeared in children who had received Covid mRNA vaccines.

Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from heart-related problems.

In addition, the researchers note zero children from the entire group, vaccinated or unvaccinated, died from COVID-19.

Furthermore, the study found that Covid shots offered the children very little protection from the virus, with many becoming infected after just 14 to 15 weeks of receiving an injection.

The 1.7 million children observed in the study were between the ages of 5 to 15 and were registered with the UK’s National Healthcare System (NHS).

A preprint of the study’s paper was published in the MedRxiv medical journal.

The researchers were investigating the safety and effectiveness of Pfizer’s vaccine in fully vaccinated, partially vaccinated, and unvaccinated children and teenagers.

However, they discovered that cases of myocarditis and pericarditis only emerged in the vaccinated group.

Zero cases of myocarditis or pericarditis were found in the unvaccinated group. Myocarditis and pericarditis are both forms of inflammation in the heart. Pericarditis is a condition where the sac around the heart becomes inflamed, while myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle.

Both disorders restrict the heart’s ability to pump blood around the body and can cause clots, strokes, heart attacks, cardiac arrest, and ultimately sudden death.
